PolyQuest provides polypropylene (PP) resins as part of our portfolio of thermoplastic products. PP contains three main product classifications: homopolymers, copolymers, and random copolymers. We offer a full range of products to fit your application needs. From branded prime and generic prime to
Polypropylene is one of the most commonly produced plastics in the world. Two types are homopolymers and copolymers. In each category, there are several products offering different properties, and that allows for a wide range of uses such as packaging, plastic parts for industry, appliances, furniture, labeling, textiles, films, fibers, reusable containers, lab equipment, and medical devices. PP is a natural colored, mechanically rugged material that is resistant to many chemical solvents, bases, and acids. Some of the properties polypropylene offers are chemical resistance, elasticity and toughness, fatigue resistance, insulation, and transmissivity.
We are a proud partner and a branded authorized distribution channel of Braskem Polypropylene – the largest PP producer in the Americas.
We offer both polypropylene and recycled polypropylene resins within the following attributes:

PP has the highest flexural modulus of the polyolefins and is among the lightest of the engineering thermoplastics (SG=0.90).
|
Polypropylene is known for its good mechanical properties, heat resistance, chemical resistance, and excellent moisture barrier properties. Homopolymers exhibit high stiffness, copolymers have impact and ductility advantages, and random copolymers display good clarity and have low melting points.

Recyclable thermoplastic polymer offers significant environmental and cost-savings benefits typically associated with purchasing virgin plastic resin. Typical PCR and PIR products include quality and performance testing in order to validate the material, for example, ASTM standards or a Letter of Non-Objection.
